I have checked in a branch which makes failed adaptation (inside the __call__ of an interface) raise a LookupError instead of a TypeError: the branch also documents the semantics of __call__. I would like to merge this to the trunk a 3.6.0 version (bumped to indicate the quasi-API change).
I'm +-0 on the change, but don't think it's a quasi-API change, but a proper API-change. If we do it, would it be a better idea to do it together with all other API changes that are planned, and call it 4.0? The Python 3 branch is ready for merging, and I personally think that although it's completely backwards compatible the changes are big enough, and the addition of @implementor as a class decorator is yet another API-change. I'd love to see the Python 3 branch, the adapt()/utility() and possibly this change all go into a new release. zope.testing is also big enough change to warrant a 4.0, as I have removed zope.testing.doctest. Maybe all Python 3 compatible releases shuld be called 4.0?
